Features
This Educational Construction Series assembly kit creates a unique Swivelbot. The model moves forward as its front wheels turn. When hitting obstacles such as walls, the front wheel and crown gearbox turn to the right, and the model changes its direction. The Swivelbot will be a fascinating creation to all ages as it moves around, dodging obstacles.
- This assembly kit creates a model which moves on two smaller front and two larger rear wheels, swiveling to the right when it meets obstacles such as walls. This unique movement is produced by the crown gearbox which moves the front wheels.
- Swivelbot moves forward when the way ahead is clear, and when it hits an obstacle, the front wheels stop and the crown gearbox turns to the right until the way is clear again.
- This model features a unique rounded body with semicircular bumper and front/rear wheels molded in light violet ABS resin.
- The top antenna also moves.
- Includes everything needed for easy snap-fit/screw-together assembly. Comes with stickers to decorate the model. Includes mini motor and requires R03/AAA/UM4 battery (x1) (sold separately).
The rounded front bumper helps Swivelbot turn away from any obstacles it meets. While only decorative, the rotating antenna adds character.
Swivelbot is powered by a miniature motor and slimline gearbox - at just 15mm wide, it is a seriously compact unit.
This image shows the crown gearbox, which rotates when Swivelbot hits an obstacle, turning the front wheels to the right until it can proceed.
Why not make your own flock of Swivelbots and watch as they all merrily wind their way around, swiveling to avoid each other as they go?
This image shows how the antenna can be removed and in its place fun message cards installed. Check out the video for some ideas!
